Did anyone else feel like something rolled over their graves last night?

Because something made my back crawl and has been bothering me ever since.

...Bed bugs, maybe?

That would have made my life so much easier if it were.

[ y the fingur steeplin, Theo? r u plannin evulz? 8| ]

You think so? I hear people can get severe allergic reactions to their bites.

[ Li, Li, Li. You're missing the point entirely. Or at least pretending to. ]

[He always be plannin evulz. It's a habit he picked up from his dad when things got spooky. You're getting side-eyed Li, except that it's hard to tell under Theo's sunglasses. Which also makes it kinda creepy with the finger steepling.]

Yes. Because this sort of hit my godly ohshit something bad is going to happen senses.

[ It's like being in Hei's homeworld. Creepiness galore. Only one guy he fought wore sunglasses, though. ]

....Y-You mean like an apocalypse?

[Hi, Theo. Julie feels okay enough to talk to you, even if you do have creepy rats.]

Did you see the house?

Re: video:

[deadmanbusiness]

[They aren't creepy!... Okay yes they are, from a certain perspective...]

I did. But I couldn't get near the house.

Re: video:

[grigio]

Why not?

[She's not going near that house. Ain't nobody got time for that!]

Re: video:

[deadmanbusiness]

It was always twenty feet away or so.

[He did. Because... it's what he does.]

I felt that way too. I thought I was the only one. I thought I was being paranoid. You felt that way, too?

Re: Video

[deadmanbusiness]

Well, I am paranoid and I did feel that.

Re: Video

[just_displaced]

I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm paranoid. Anybody'd tell you that. But I'm glad to know my paranoia wasn't unwarranted. Or maybe I'm not glad to know, because that means there's really something going on, and that concerns the hell out me.

Re: Video

That describes quite a few of my days.

you're not funny.

I wasn't trying to be.

rolled over their grave my ass.

[INSENSITIVE. And she just loves to hate you, Theo, it's very cathartic.]

Re: text;

[deadmanbusiness]

Well, that's what it felt like to me. Perhaps it's not the most helpful of terms but it was certainly unpleasant.

[Why do you hates him? He didn't do anything to you! He even returned your demon dog thing!]

voice; Here, have a Brit to chat with... :)

[ladycroft]

Not really. A sense of dread, was it?

Hello Brit! Have a necromancer

[deadmanbusiness]

Well... more like a sense of a shift in the local balance of power towards an unknown source, possibly one dealing with death, which considering the time of year isn't surprising, as it tries to effect the City.

voice; Hurrah for raising the dead!

[ladycroft]

Ah, I see. Are you usually aware of these shifts?

Re: voice;

[deadmanbusiness]

I'm a necromancer, so yes.

[And a godling... demigod...]

Maybe something you ate.

[ Though the usual teasing seems to lack some zest. ]

You alright?

Re: video;

[deadmanbusiness]

Nah. I didn't have dinner at your place.

[He notices it.]

Mostly. A bit jitterier than usual.

[makingastatement]

I'm gonna let that one slide.

Change in the weather, maybe. I'd say it's probably nothing but it never is here.

Re: video;

[deadmanbusiness]

[He grins. Thanks for taking the joke, Al.]

It doesn't feel like weather. Bothering the wrong senses.
